Grandiose ideas
Intuitive actions
A thousand good intentions
No need for human blueprint
Chartered course to misery
I’ve memorized your words
Pointed incantations
Shallow creeds of fear
My eyes
Closed in peaceful ease
Need no mortal sight
Higher road to travel
Children thrive in wonder
Innocence
Authentic fascination
50 years along
That’s good enough for me

Hello Bill,

This is a very reflective poem and makes one ponder about years past.
I'm 59 years along and that's very good enough for me too!
